Oasis...

Had a thought...Oasis without Noel have apparently got an album coming out next summer...I wonder, given the fact they dropped out of the second date of V this year, if they've come to an agreement to make up by playing next year??

If that happens and Kasabian headline the other day we could end up with two Oasis tribute bands playing...

Still got my fingers crossed for Arctics and REM...

haha lippy.

I remember a few year back when verve split and richard ashcroft headlined. if noel headlined I would take that, I much prefer his voice but doubt his voice is strong enough to headline.

I think the good money is on arctics and the wonderful kasabian headlining. :P

or it could be radiohead and bjork headlining.

Surely V would put Oasis and Kasabian on the same day, If that were the headliners theres no way Id be going to V next year.

I really rated Oasis' performance at V this year, and I feel sorry for the Chelms lot who didn't get to see them but that's just taking the piss having them back next year

Why don't Chelms book them for the Friday night, and we can have a Friday night headliner who only plays at Staffs like Daft Punk :P

really think noel could be playin v next year rather than liam, possibly as 2nd stage headliner?? or high main stage!

not sure but think liam has said he wont be singing any oasis songs that noel wrote anymore, which is a fair few 2 b honest, but if noel played am sure he would go down a treat!!

Yeah, think Noel would be OK...not as headliner mind.

And if Liam's only playing Oasis songs he's written...can't see many people rushing to hear a set consisting of the likes of 'Little James' & 'Songbird'

You've got a point!

Jesus...if we had Paul McCartney (doing Beatles songs), Noel, Oasis without Noel, Kasabian and The Bootleg Beatles it could be the first time a festival has had a whole day that consisted of just one song...(although to be fair, I accidentally caught a bit of the Script last year when I was going for a pint so I know exactly how it feels to listen to a song that makes you think its lasted for 24 hours...)

Now, I love Oasis...seen them loads going back to the Definately Maybe tour, went to Knebworth, Earls Court etc etc...but they were very poor at V this year...worst I've ever seen them...they couldn't have been going through the motions more if they'd donned rubber gloves and got jobs fishing the toilet paper out of the tanks in a sewage plant...

Personally, I thought Snow Patrol & The Killers were were far, far better (not to mention The Specials, Dizzee etc etc)...much as it grieves me to say that. We all have off days at work where we can't be arsed, but at least when I do it I haven't had 80,000 people fork out £160 they can barely afford to watch me do it...

Fraud?? Ha ha! yeah...probably some confused dickwad reported them because they figured out when they got home that they hadn't actually just watched the Beatles, The Stones, Jimi Hendrix, Oasis, Pink Floyd etc etc but they were people pretending to be them...there are some pretty stupid people out there (the fact that I have a job and a sex life is prove of that!)

Liam Gallagher's live vocals from the last few years have sounded like Kermit the frog with a chainsaw lodged in his throat - so I'm not overly excited by seeing them live without Noel (and his songs).. On record, (with studio enhancement?), Liam can still lay down good vocals - but the key is whether or not the remaining members of Oasis can write good songs for him to sing!

TBH, I'm more interested in seeing what Noel has to offer as a solo artist - if, and when, he decides to pull his lazy fingers out and starts working on it...

    • Rotten communication. Actually god awful. Posting sporadically on IG, closing Mordor only to reopen and cause some serious carnage. Left the festival as it got too much for my 16year old daughter. She was devastated about Alex G and Mac…but TV girl could have saved it. Took us until 1220 and already home to find out they might/are playing. Pish.    and on another note, this festival has lost its bastard soul. Gone are the wee tents with local sellers selling vinyl, t shirts etc, now you can buy a 50 f**king eur official T-shirt. The ar*e is truely out of this event now. I went to Porto for the first time last year and it was fab. I love Barcelona and the line up is always stacked, but this festival is a corporate loss take. Hopefully a better day tomorrow.
    • f**king horrendous and seems they couldn’t run an egg and spoon race.  zero info and the crush waiting to get in to see Massive Attack was potentially disasterous. Zero info, no stewards at all and was told that the whole evening was cancelled, when we got to the exit. Because it rained. First time attendee and i’ve got onsay, i’m far from impressed. Scalping bastard taxis asking €37 plus for an €11 fare too. Wonderdul.
    • Rumours are it's called The Lost Tour. In the US in September. Ireland in November (so UK+Europe a good bet around November/early December). 
    • Hey guys, is there a group going for any solo y not goers this year?? I couldn’t miss out once I saw the acts but it’s just me and would be great to meet some others:))
    • After deciding to abandon the festival, here's a few of my thoughts (mostly negative tbf).    On the positive side - was it just me or were there a few more urinals than last year? Seemed to help the queues at the loos a bit from what i saw. Plus they had at least had some foresight and had a few more covered areas in the VIP areas.    Now on the negatives.  The weather was admittedly pretty crap but it wasn't apocalyptic. How the actual f**k are bits of the main stage falling off in those conditions?  Then the communication was awful, there's a load of people who left the site because they were told by security guards/other personnel that there would be no more acts on the main stage this evening.  You have an app Primavera, use it! Yes, there's a shitload going on I'm sure but communication with the festivalgoers should be one of the top priorities. You failed.    And I'm not usually somebody who buys into the whole "oh this is hugely unsafe and it's lucky people weren't hurt" narrative, but all the above led to movements of people that were genuinely unsafe.  Evacuating Mordor entirely (again... Why???) and then having a horde of people trying to get in because they thought they were going to Massive Attack was insane.  And given a lot of people basically abandoned ship around 10.30pm the crush at both the exit to the festival and the entrance to the Metro was pretty dangerous.   Conditions happen, most people will get that....but the contingencies have to be better.
